The workshop mechanics were super and quick, but on collection of my car which was covered in bird poo and interior not so clean I felt a bit let down as previous occasion on recalls etc the mercedes Giffnock branch had always handed my car back washed and clean. I know this is time consuming but even so much of a hose over the car would have been better. I am one for keeping my cars in spotless condition so I did stop on the way home to get the car cleaned. I also enquired about an upgrade in the next few months to be told by the salesman that he did not have what I was looking for to try the Hamilton branch .

Poor workmanship and inadequate quality control

I took my Mercedes EQS in for a service and also reported two additional issues: the damaged driver-side wing mirror needed replacing, and the driver’s window kept dropping after the car was locked.

I was charged £180 in relation to the wing mirror. I initially understood this to be payment towards the replacement mirror, only to discover later that the £180 was simply a diagnostic charge for inspecting and dismantling it to establish what was wrong. The casing was visibly smashed, so it was already fairly obvious that the mirror required replacement. This charge was not clearly explained to me beforehand.

After the car had been in the garage for four days, it was returned with the window fault still present. It had also developed a new rattle inside the driver’s door, and the satellite navigation system was no longer working properly.

I therefore had to take the car back again. They did eventually repair the window fault, but the satellite navigation issue remains unresolved. To make matters worse, I later found a loose cover plate sitting in the driver’s footwell, apparently left over after the work had been carried out.

Overall, the standard of workmanship and quality control leaves a great deal to be desired. A premium vehicle should not be returned with the original fault unresolved, additional problems introduced and loose parts left inside the car.

The whole experience has been frustrating, inconvenient and well below the standard I would expect from an authorised Mercedes-Benz service centre.

Task rather than customer service oriented

I dropped the car on 20 July for service and MOT on the same day. Then the service report said I need to replace the front suspension so that to pass the MOT and I agreed with it. Upon I collected the car on 21 July, I found that the MOT was failed on 21 July because they performed the MOT before the service and suspension being fixed. Though the MOT was finally pass on 21 July, I got a failed MOT record and the MOT expiry date had changed to 20 July 2027 (originally 25 July 2027 if no MOT failed) which were both avoidable. If service was performed and suspension was fixed before the MOT, the MOT should get a straight Pass without the problems mentioned.
The service consultant and manager were great and very helpful, they had tried their best to explain and make it up. However, it is the system and process that doesn’t make sense to let the MOT fail first and then do the service/fix to get the MOT pass. It is clear that these work processes are not built from the customer perspective rather than the ease of jobs arrangement for the workshop. Despite their service personnels are great, I am disappointed with the way that the services they provide are not customer oriented which do not match the premium you pay for and the renowned Mercedes’ service standard.
